Food Businesses

If you are planning to operate a business (including a hobby business) or community group that involves the sale of food then you will need to register with Council. The definition of sale includes food given away for free as part of another service (e.g. bed and breakfasts), or as part or a promotion or as a prize or reward.

Should you already have a Food Registration with Council and would like to pay your annual renewal fee, you can now do this online.

Food businesses are classified into four risk levels according to the type of food used on premises and target customers.
Depending on the risk level, businesses will need to either register or notify.
